Game of Thrones: The Wrath of the Sleeping Dragon

"His Majesty!"

"His Majesty!"

Bellerion landed in the square outside the palace, as the training ground inside the palace was no longer large enough to accommodate the enormous creature.

Unexpectedly, the black dragon's landing outside the palace caused a sensation, with countless people from Pentos crowding around to watch and loudly greeting Viserys.

During Viserys's absence from Pentos, the people were also very worried about the young king.

They worried that if something happened to Viserys, his current good life would be over.

After all, no other nobleman would treat the common people as kindly as he did, and the people genuinely supported Viserys.

Chapter 355 The Situation

Viserys wore gleaming Valyrian steel armor, his long, slightly wavy, silver-gold hair hanging down over the armor.

Add to that his clean-cut, handsome face, high nose bridge, violet-like eyes, and warm smile, and he's practically a heartthrob.

Viserys jumped off the dragon's back and waved to the crowd of onlookers.

"Pantos is surprisingly prosperous."

Mia followed closely behind him. It was her first time in Pentos, and she was shocked by the city's prosperity and power as she looked down from the sky.

The towering white city walls, the colossal red temples, the well-arranged square brick towers, the port with its massive throughput, and the nine-towered palace atop the mountain overlooking the sea, with soft sandy beaches below.

Pentos was even more prosperous than her native Valantis.

While Pentos' military strength has never been particularly impressive, its economic development has been quite excellent.

Now that the Targaryen family has taken over Pentos, they have filled the city's gaps, and Viserys has brought a powerful army.

With money and an army, Pentos' overall strength eventually surpassed that of Valantis, firmly establishing itself as the second-largest trading city-state.

They even have a chance to challenge Braavos's leading position.

Valantis and Braavos were once the two opposing forces vying for dominance in the trade city-states.

Valantis possessed a powerful army that swept through the trading city-states, while Braavos had an invincible fleet that controlled the seas.

However, as Valantis gradually declined and Pentos rose to prominence, the competition between Pentos and Braavos became a land-sea rivalry.

The female knight was also dressed in bright women's armor, with a snow-white cloak draped over her shoulders, holding a plain white shield, and a simple longsword hanging at her waist, exuding a heroic and valiant air.

"I didn't expect you to be so popular in Pentos."

The two hurried towards the palace, while Mia looked around with some curiosity.

Seeing the people of Pentos's adoration for Viserys, he couldn't help but whisper something behind Viserys' back.

In public, the two naturally maintained the proper etiquette between ruler and subject, but in private, they were friends and could chat normally.

Viserys didn't mind her calling him by his name directly.

"The support of the people is the foundation of a king."

Viserys merely smiled slightly before quickly suppressing his smile; he found the whole thing perfectly normal.

He walked at the front and spoke calmly.

“If a king does not have the support of the people, then there is a big problem.”

"You're right."

The female knight pondered for a moment, then nodded.

"His Majesty."

"His Majesty."

Then the soldiers outside the palace saw Viserys, followed by a white-robed female knight they did not recognize.

But they didn't dare ask any more questions and quickly bowed slightly.

Rumbling--

Then he pushed open the palace gate with force.

The people inside the palace's throne room, led by the eldest princess, naturally came out to greet them.

Upon seeing Viserys, Renis lifted her skirt and ran over to give him a big hug.

"Viserys, you're finally back."

Renis gently hugged Viserys, feeling the chilling Valyrian steel armor emanating from him, while Viserys ruffled her hair.

This time, Renis didn't cry. Perhaps it was because she had gotten used to Viserys's departure, or perhaps it was because the girl had grown up and knew how to maintain the demeanor of a princess.

Mia stood behind Viserys, one hand gripping the hilt of a sword, the other holding a plain white shield.

The female knight took a deep breath, straightened her shoulders and back slightly, and puffed out her full chest.

She noticed that many people were watching Viserys and the girl embrace, while also secretly observing her.

This girl must be Reines...

Mia thought to herself, "Viserys introduced me to him before we came."

He had a niece, Rhaenys, who stayed behind to oversee the kingdom, and the two were very close. He also had a younger sister, Daenerys, but she was still young.

Viserys then released Renis and looked around, where he saw many familiar faces.

"His Majesty."

"His Majesty."

Viserys did not tell them where he was going on this journey, and even Reynis did not know that he had gone to explore the Valyrian ruins.

Therefore, all these people are now staring at Viserys with curious eyes, wondering where he has gone and why he has been out of contact for months.

After Viserys left, they also tried to find news of His Majesty the King, but found nothing.

While one person might be able to hide, a dragon as large as Bellerion is not so easy to hide.

However, Viserys did not say anything to explain, but simply nodded slightly, and then introduced the female knight to everyone.

"She is my newly appointed Kingsguard, Sir Mia."

"Jazz".

"Sir Mia".

Viserys's trip back with a female Kingsguard surprised everyone present, causing them to exchange bewildered glances.

If they remember correctly, this should be the first female member of the Kingsguard in history.

However, Viserys had always been quite powerful in the new dynasty, so although the ministers present were somewhat puzzled, especially Jon Clinton who seemed to want to say something several times but ultimately said nothing.

Viserys then briefly introduced the people present, and the female knight also took the initiative to greet them.

Then the group returned to the main hall.

Viserys naturally returned to his seat, and the servants brought over a chair for Renis to sit in the side seat next to Viserys.

The white-robed knight stood behind her king, one hand on the hilt of his sword. As a battle-hardened mercenary, Mia's swordsmanship was quite excellent.

And all of her techniques are practical killing methods; she can kill monsters in the Valyrian ruins one-on-one.

Although she was just a girl, in the eyes of everyone present, apart from Oberyn, the others were probably no match for her.

Jon Snow may only be on par with Mia, but Jon Snow's talent does not lie in combat.

Viserys sat on his throne and listened to Reyne's report on recent events in Pentos, as well as the intelligence she had just received from across the Narrow Sea.

"Has the entire North fallen?"

Viserys's expression turned serious upon hearing Renis's words.

The speed at which the war in Westeros unfolded was indeed somewhat unexpected for him.

He had originally thought that the Baratheon dynasty at its peak, unlike its weakened state after the War of the Five Kings, should be able to hold its own against the White Walkers.

But unexpectedly, they suffered a series of defeats and had to retreat to the third line of defense, the Jingze.

"If we lose Jingze, we'll be in real trouble."

That way, the White Walkers would have no more obstacles, and the 'girl's' broad, flat chest and abdomen would be at the mercy of the White Walkers.

"Shall we send troops now, Your Majesty?"

Mistoin perked up and quickly asked.

Chapter 356 Aftermath

Viserys brought back five dragon eggs from outside, but not many people knew about it.

However, with the frequent ship and caravan traffic between the free trade city-states, and through communication between people, the news seemed to have wings, only a step slower than the dragons, but it still reached Pentos not long afterward.

Some people saw the black dragon appear in the sky above the sea of ​​smoke, but there was only the black dragon itself, and the young dragon lord was not seen. The black dragon even attacked a small boat.

Later, some people saw a huge creature resting near the Sea of ​​Sighs, but they didn't dare to get too close and couldn't see clearly whether there were any people beside the dragon.

After all, Bellerion was too big to be completely hidden.

Dragons have been extinct in this world for over a hundred years, and only three are known to exist. If this black dragon is not wild, then it probably belongs to that young dragon lord.

Viserys Targaryen has quietly appeared near Volantis and the Land of Long Summer.

Combined with the recent strange occurrences in the Sea of ​​Smoke, the constantly turbulent gray fog spread outwards, engulfing the ocean and the land. Only then did people realize that His Majesty the King had been exploring the ruins of Valyria during his disappearance.

Furthermore, Viserys left that demonic land unnoticed, making him arguably the most low-key explorer in history.

Others who survived the Valyrian ruins were eager to let the whole world know that they had successfully explored the ruins, to write books about their experiences, and to sell the various treasures and artifacts they had obtained at high prices.

This news had already caused a stir in Valantis long before it reached Pentos.

The exploration plan that the Tiger Party invested heavily in not long ago has been nowhere to be found. It has almost ended in complete failure, with no one coming out alive.

In contrast, a king of Pentos, living far from the Valantis, explored the Valyrian ruins alone and succeeded.

What few people know is that Viserys was actually in that large army at the time, but he concealed his identity and used a simple disguise.

Further investigation by others led scholars in Valanthi, who were experts in history, to take advantage of the buzz and reveal the identities of the Targaryen family, unveiling their mysterious veil.
